Alli’s Originals is the home of a remarkable website with a huge selection of jewelry items created by stay at home mom Alli. This site, however, does not include a collection of baubles and awkwardly made jewellery items by someone just trying their hand at a craft and trying to sell them. Alli is a true professional and a master at her craft, having not only designed her fabulous line of jewelry but she’s also taught courses in jewellery making herself.
Alli makes beautiful hand-stamped pendants and charms that are THE perfect mother’s day gift for yourself (hint: bookmark her site for your husband) or for your own mom or mommy friend in your life. The hand-stamped pendants on a chain are the perfect accessory for any mom – not too showy or fancy but pretty and delicate and something that can be worn with a t-shirt and yoga pants, or jeans and heels.
Alli sent me the perfect mother’s day gift (no, this does not mean my husband is off the hook this year) and I’ve been wearing it daily since. She sent me the Little Squares design which includes 3 squares on a 16″ sterling silver regular or ball chain necklace. The squares measure 8mm x 8mm and can fit up to 5 upper case letters or 6 lower case letters, an initial or a symbol of choice.
I tried to take a picture of my own but my camera can’t zoom in on something so small (or I’m not bright enough to figure out how to do it!) so I have to use the pictures from the site. My necklace has a pendant with each of my 2 children’s names and a third one with a heart. I actually LOVE that the third one is just a heart because it has an extra special meaning for me.
The detail that Alli can get onto a single pendant is remarkable. Take a look at the name/date option you can have on yours.
What I like about the necklaces is they are just long enough to look pretty, but not so long that my daughter is constantly yanking on it.
If necklaces aren’t your thing, Alli’s Originals also has earrings on the site that can be hand-stamped with names as well. In other words, you’re bound to find something to suit your tastes here.
Alli’s Originals is one of those sites that can be overwhelming when starting to shop for something for yourself or someone else. It’s definitely a site that requires a warm cup of coffee and a quiet moment to browse through because you will find so much that you may want to combine to make the perfect piece of jewelry.
Alli would like to offer a $35 gift certificate to her site for one lucky reader. To enter, just go to Alli’s Originals and tell me what you would put the gift certificate towards.
